I want something that permit this :

$ cat full_backup partial_backup | svnadmin load repos

partial_backup is created by something like "svnadmin dumpdiff ...".

A possible backup strategy :
* every month :
$ svnadmin dump repos 0 youngest_version > full_backup # very slow...

* every night :
$ svnadmin dumpdiff repos current_version_full_backup youngest_version >
partial_bakcup # fast

This can be use to maintain a mirror of the repository (if master cash i
quickly switch to the mirror).
$ svnadmin dumpdiff local_repos current_version_mirror youngest_version
| svnadmin load remote_repos

remote_repos is not possible.
| rsh remote svnadmin load repos

It seems that svnadmin proceed in this way :
$ svnadmin dump repos 3 5 > dump
* Dumped revision 3. # snapshot
* Dumped revision 4. # changes
* Dumped revision 5. # changes

$ svnadmin dump repos 0 youngest_version > full_backup
$ svnadmin dump repos current_version_full_backup youngest_version >
partial_backup
$ cat full_backup partial_backup | svnadmin load repos

This does not work .
